Nowhere in Canada does a National park lie closer to a major city than Elk Island National Park to Edmonton. Just 35 km east of the city, this was Canada’s first federal wildlife sanctuary and is home to free-roaming herds of elk, moose, deer and bison. Evelyn Henke of Parks Canada guided Alicia Roy, my journalist companion, and I to close encounters with bison and on a splendid hike on the Beaver Pond Trail.
